I'm on an ebay spree again at the moment. Just won Max, Ghost Town, Cheers season 3 and Sophie Scholl (bluray) off there earlier today. Bidding on several others too.

Yeah, I'm checking on a few items on Ebay at the moment.

Just wondering Barn, what's the differences between the USA and UK Sopranos complete box sets like?

***Phatmann*** · 05-09-2009, 21:46

You best not be the bastard who outbid me on Three & Out.

***Hunter*** · 05-09-2009, 23:30

Nope, you best not be the bastard who outbid me on Spiderman (3-disc Deluxe Edition).

My mate who works in Gamestation got a 12 disc Blue ray colletion of Band of Brothers for £12, pre owned but still awesome!

I think it's just aesthetic. The US one is a lot nicer.

Think I'll leave the Sopranos for a bit then, I probably wouldn't get round to watching them for a while anyway so I'll take the chance. Will probably buy a pair of jeans instead, or a trip to Wolfsburg for our Champions League game.

Just bought this from Ebay, thought I might as well since I quite enjoyed the movie and this edition is now out of print:

Cost me £3.75 which isn't bad I believe considering what it is. I'm currently looking to get Spiderman Deluxe Edition too, and Spiderman 2 Gift Set since they are out of print also I believe, albeit not rare, but still, they're not going to get any cheaper over time so I might as well get them now while still relatively cheap.

Signed up yesterday on The Import Forums, a great DVD site mind, and since I quite like getting the collector's editions of films I quite enjoy, it's such a handy forum. I'd recommend it Barn if you're not a member already.

Not a member mate but I frequent it a lot, already had a link to it on the first page.

Bought Chaplin, Balls of Fury, They Live and Black Snake Moan from ebay today. Only bidding on one more item now and my ebay spree is over. One of the positive feedbacks I received made me chuckle: "Paid quicker than Usain Bolt. New World record! Workers posting it tomorrow..5*"

***Hunter*** · 06-09-2009, 23:29

That's excellent Phat.

I always get the bog standard stuff, saying that, I always give the same responses myself mind.

Just bought from Amazon, new and sealed, Spiderman Deluxe Edition:

Should I get Fargo on BR? I mean, how would it look?

Better than on DVD...

Cool film choice by the way. Yar.

**BarnDoor** · 07-09-2009, 10:47

I hear the Fargo BR transfer is pretty good, though hardly reference quality.

The film transfer is very good. Crisp. But the extras are not as good as they should be.
It'll depend how much you like/want the extras.

**BarnDoor** · 07-09-2009, 13:59

The extras on Coen Bros DVDs are always shit mate.

Apparently the release of the Lord of the Rings Trilogy has been delayed until next year. Possibly this has something to do with the release of the Extended Editions, but I'm not fussed as I was waiting for the latter anyway.
